Mafia! [HD]

Seems to get Funnier with each Viewing
I'll admit that I did not like this film the first time I saw it in the theatre. It started out at a snail's pace and seemed equally strained for laughter. However, there was a smattering of truly insightful comic genius throughout that made it mildly enjoyable. Then I watched it on video with a group of people. For some unknown reason I found myself laughing uncontrollably. As I watched the film again I then began to notice how much it followed the GODFATHER saga in parody. Once I began to realize what the filmmakers were doing it all started to take shape and made good comic sense. Not only did it follow the same inspirational format of AIRPLANE but it took the same approach with its audience: if this joke doesn't work for you we have plenty more lined up one after another and eventually you are going to start laughing. What's interesting is that you actually have to listen carefully to what is being said to really get the full effect of this well thought out comedy because it is...

I liked it
I thought this movie was hilarious. Some people said that they hated this movie and that it was not funny at all. To this, I say that it depends on the person. To fully enjoy this movie, you have to have seen the movies it is parodying, like Casino and Godfather series. If you have seen those movies, watch and enjoy. If not, you still might like it. Give it a shot!

If you have a sense of humor...
This movie is one of the most funny movies I have ever seen. I really depends on what kind of sense of humor you have. It is especially funny for a kid, but has some stuff an adult would know about to get some jokes.

It is a spoof on mob movies, and some others, like Forrest Gump. It doesn't really need lots of explaining, just watch it for laughs!

You would probably like this movie if you liked stuff like Naked Gun, or Hot Shots.
